Hi Kristen, I'm having the exact same issue, and it just happened yesterday for me too. I've spent the whole day trying to resolve it by chatting with a few different MS help agents and so far no progress. They say because my version is 'obsolete' (it's 2008) it's longer supported so they can't help me figure this out, all they can do is press me to subscribe to Office365 instead. I gave up at one point and just decided to subscribe to Office365 but even that isn't working -- I get a 'Sorry we're not able to complete your purchase at this time; try again later' message over and over again. I think it's an incompatibility issue between older Office versions and the new High Sierra OS on Mac -- did you recently upgrade to that as I did? One possible solution they suggested was to reinstall my MS Office software if I still have the disks. Then they said if I could provide them with the product key # they could verify my purchase and they'd be able to fix the issue remotely.

Again, they couldn't tell me where to find that number in my Office application files because my version is no longer supported. I downloaded a free software to help me find it and provided it to them. They then said because my version is obsolete they can't actually fix it remotely. Very frustrating. Another possible solution they suggested was to update my DNS setting and then restart my computer. Photoshop for mac crack cs5. I did but it didn't make a difference.

They finally suggested trying Apple support to see if they could figure it out, so that's my next step for now. Will let you know if I find anything out. Please do the same if you find a way out of this mess - thanks, Paul. I’m sorry it happened to you too as i was hoping it was a glitch.
